Tokyo: Kantosha Co., Ltd, 1958. Hardcover. 8vo. Burgundy cloth with gilt lettering. 258pp. Numerous illustrations, foldout chart, foldout drawing. Near fine. Tight, handsome copy of the second volume (only) of this bibliographically cryptic title, No. 88 in the Aireview series, printed in Japanese with a foreword in German. Front flyleaf bears an unidentified signature that appears to read "Henry Hajime Kogawa" and possibly the same name in Japanese characters -- whether this a simple ownership signature or someone connected with this title is uncertain. An uncommon title, in any case.
